Speaker Precautions

For British models

Replacement and mounting of an AC plug on the power supply cord of this unit should be performed only by qualiﬁed service personnel.

IMPORTANT

The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

Blue: Neutral Brown: Live

As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this apparatus may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows: The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter N or coloured black. The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured red.

IMPORTANT

The plug is ﬁtted with an appropriate fuse. If the fuse needs to be replaced, the replacement fuse must be approved by ASTA or BSI to BS1362 and have the same ampere rating as that indicated on the plug. Check for the ASTA mark or the BSI mark on the body of the fuse. If the power cord’s plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, cut it off and ﬁt a suitable plug. Fit a suitable fuse in the plug.

For European Models

Declaration of Conformity

We,

ONKYO EUROPE ELECTRONICS GmbH LIEGNITZERSTRASSE 6, 82194 GROEBENZELL, GERMANY

declare in own responsibility, that the ONKYO product described in this instruction manual is in compliance with the corresponding technical standards such as EN60065, EN55013, EN55020 and EN61000-3-2, -3-3.

Placement

• The subwoofer cabinet is made out of wood and is therefore sensitive to extreme temperatures and humidity, do not put it in locations subject to direct sunlight or in humid places, such as near an air conditioner, humidiﬁer, bathroom, or kitchen.

• Do not put water or other liquids close to the speakers. If liquid is spilled over the speakers, the drive units may be damaged.

• Speakers should only be placed on sturdy, ﬂat surfaces that are free from vibration. Putting them on uneven or unstable surfaces, where they may fall and cause damage, will affect the sound quality.

• Subwoofer is designed to be used in the upright vertical position only. Do not use it in the horizontal or tilted position.

• If the unit is used near a turntable, CD player or DVD player, howling or slipping of sound may occur. To prevent this, move the unit away from the turntable, CD player or DVD player, otherwise lower the unit’s output level.

Using Close to a TV or Computer

TVs and computer monitors are magnetically sensitive devices and as such are likely to suffer discoloration or picture distortion when conventional speakers are placed nearby. To prevent this, the SKF-560F and SKC-560C feature internal magnetic shielding. In some situations, however, discoloration may still be an issue, in which case you should turn off your TV or monitor, wait 15 to 30 minutes, and then turn it back on again. This normally activates the degaussing function, which neutralizes the magnetic ﬁeld, thereby removing any discoloration effects. If discoloration problems persist, try moving the speakers away from your TV or monitor. Note that discoloration can also be caused by a magnet or demagnetizing tool that’s too close to your TV or monitor. Do not place SKM-450S close to TV or a computer monitor because they have no magnetic shield.

Input Signal Warning

The speakers can handle the speciﬁed input power when used for normal music reproduction. If any of the following signals are fed to them, even if the input power is within the speciﬁed rating, excessive current may ﬂow in the speaker coils, causing burning or wire breakage:

1. Interstation noise from an untuned FM radio.

2. Sound from fast-forwarding a cassette tape.

3. High-pitched sounds generated by an oscillator,

electronic musical instrument, and so on.

4. Ampliﬁer oscillation.

5. Special test tones from audio test CDs and so on.

6. Thumps and clicks caused by connecting or discon-

necting audio cables (Always turn off your ampliﬁer before connecting or disconnecting cables.)

7. Microphone feedback.

Connecting Your Speakers

Enjoying Home Theater

Thanks to the AV receiver’s superb capabilities, you can enjoy surround sound with a real sense of movement in your own home—just like being in a movie theater or concert hall. You can enjoy DVDs featuring Dolby Digital or DTS. With analog or digital TV, you can enjoy Dolby Pro Logic IIx, DTS Neo:6, or Onkyo’s original DSP listening modes.

Front left and right speakers (SKF-560F)

These output the main sound. Their role in a home theater is to provide a solid anchor for the sound image. They should be positioned facing the listener at about ear level, and equally spaced from the TV. Angle them inward slightly so as to create a triangle, with the listener at the apex.

Center speaker (SKC-560C)

This speaker enhances the front left and right speakers, making sound movements distinct and providing a full sound image. For movies it’s used mainly for dialog.

Position it close to your TV (preferably on top) facing forward at about ear level, or at the same height as the front left and right speakers.

Subwoofer (SKW-560)

The subwoofer handles the bass sounds of the LFE (Low-Frequency Effects) channel. The volume and quality of the bass output from your subwoofer will depend on its position, the shape of your listening room, and your listening position. In general, a good bass sound can be obtained by installing the subwoofer in a front corner, or at one-third the way along the front wall, as shown.

Tip: To ﬁnd the best position for your subwoofer, while playing a movie or some music with good bass, experiment by placing your subwoofer at various positions within the room and choose the one that provides the most satisfying results.

Surround back left and right speakers (SKB-560)

These speakers are necessary to enjoy Dolby Digital EX, DTS-ES Matrix, DTS-ES Discrete, etc. They enhance the realism of surround sound and improve sound localization behind the listener. Position them behind the listener about 2–3 feet (60–100 cm) above ear level.

Surround left and right speakers (SKM-560S)

These speakers are used for precise sound positioning and to add realistic ambience.

Position them at the sides of the listener, or slightly behind, about 2–3 feet (60–100 cm) above ear level. Ideally they should be equally spaced from the listener.

Speaker Connection Precautions

Read the following before connecting your speakers:

•You can connect speakers with an impedance of between 8 and 16 ohms. If you use speakers with a lower impedance, and use the ampliﬁer at high volume levels for a long period of time, the built-in amp protection circuit may be activated.

• Disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet before making any connections.

• Read the instructions supplied with your speakers.

•Pay close attention to speaker wiring polarity. Connect positive (+) terminals to only positive (+) terminals, and negative (–) terminals to only negative (–) terminals. If you get them the wrong way around, the sound will be out of phase and will sound unnatural.

• Unnecessarily long or very thin speaker cables may affect the sound quality and should be avoided.

• Be careful not to short the positive and negative wires. Doing so may damage the AV receiver.

• Don’t connect more than one cable to each speaker terminal. Doing so may damage the AV receiver.

• Don’t connect a speaker to several terminals.

Leave a gap of between 3/16" (5 mm) and 7/16" (10 mm) between the wall and the base of the screw head, as shown.

(We recommend that you consult a home installation professional.)

Using the Floor Pads for Subwoofer

If the subwoofer is placed on a hard ﬂoor (wood, vinyl, tile, etc.) and playback is very loud, the subwoofer's feet may damage the ﬂooring. To prevent this, place the supplied pads underneath the subwoofer's feet. The pads also provide a stable base for the subwoofer.

Pad

To mount the center speaker horizontally, use the two keyhole slots shown to hang each speaker on two screws that are securely screwed into the wall.

Caution:

A mounting screw’s ability to support a speaker depends on how well it’s anchored to the wall. If you have hollow walls, screw each mounting screw into a stud. If there are no studs, or the walls are solid, use suitable wall anchors.

Use screws with a head diameter of 5/16" (9 mm) or less and a shank diameter of 1/8" (4 mm) or less. With hollow walls, use a cable/pipe detector to check for any power cables or water pipes before making any holes.

Connecting Antennas

—Continued

Connecting an Outdoor FM Antenna

If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied indoor FM antenna, try a commercially available outdoor FM antenna instead.

Notes:

• Outdoor FM antennas work best outside, but usable results can sometimes be obtained when installed in an attic or loft.

•For best results, install the outdoor FM antenna well away from tall buildings, preferably with a clear line of sight to your local FM transmitter.

• Outdoor antenna should be located away from possible noise sources, such as neon signs, busy roads, etc.

•For safety reasons, outdoor antenna should be situated well away from power lines and other high-voltage equipment.

• Outdoor antenna must be grounded in accordance with local regulations to prevent electrical shock hazards.

■

Using a TV/FM Antenna Splitter

It’s best not to use the same antenna for both FM and TV reception, as this can cause interference problems. If circumstances demand it, use a TV/FM antenna splitter, as shown.

Connecting an Outdoor AM Antenna

If good reception cannot be achieved using the supplied AM loop antenna, an outdoor AM antenna can be used in addition to the loop antenna, as shown.

Hooking Up the Multichannel Input

If your DVD player supports multichannel audio formats such as DVD-Audio and SACD, and it has a multichannel analog audio output, you can connect it to the AV receiver’s multichannel input.

Use a multichannel analog audio cable, or several normal audio cables, to connect the AV receiver’s DVD IN FRONT L/R, CENTER, SURR L/R, SURR BACK L/R, and SUBWOOFER jacks to the 7.1-channel analog audio output on your DVD player. If your DVD player has a 5.1-channel analog audio output, don’t connect anything to the AV receiver’s SURR BACK L/R jacks.

To select the multichannel input, see “Basic AV Receiver Operation” on page 47. To adjust the subwoofer sensitivity for the multichannel input, see “Using the Audio Adjust Settings” on page 74–75.

Notes:

• The AV receiver must be turned on for recording. Recording is not possible while it’s on Standby.

• If you want to record directly from your TV or another video source without going through the AV receiver, connect the audio and video outputs from your TV or other video component directly to the recording VCR/DVR’s audio and video inputs. See the manuals supplied with your TV or VCR/DVR for details.

•Video signals connected to composite video inputs can only be recorded via the VCR/DVR OUT V jack. So if your source TV or VCR is connected to a composite video input, the recording VCR/DVR must be connected to the VCR/DVR OUT V jack. Likewise, video signals connected to S-Video inputs can only be recorded via the VCR/DVR OUT S jack. So if your source TV or VCR is connected to an S-Video input, the recording VCR/DVR must be connected to the VCR/DVR OUT S jack.

Connecting Components with HDMI

About HDMI

Designed to meet the increased demands of digital TV, HDMI (High Deﬁnition Multimedia Interface) is a new digital interface standard for connecting TVs, projectors, DVD players, set-top boxes, and other video components. Until now, several separate video and audio cables have been required to connect AV components. With HDMI, a single cable can carry control signals, digital video, and up to eight channels of digital audio (2-channel PCM, multichannel digital audio, or multichannel PCM).

The HDMI video stream (i.e., video signal) is compatible with DVI (Digital Visual Interface), with a DVI input can be connected by using an HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable. (This may not work with some TVs and displays, resulting in no picture.)

The AV receiver uses HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), so only HDCP-compatible components will display a picture.

The AV receiver’s HDMI interface is based on the following standard:

HT-R560: Pass-thru

About Copyright Protection

The AV receiver supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection),*2 a copy-protection system for digital video signals. Other devices connected to the AV receiver via HDMI must also support HDCP.

Use a commercially available HDMI cable (supplied with some components) to connect the AV receiver’s HDMI OUT to the HDMI input on your TV or projector.

so TVs and displays

*1 DVI (Digital Visual Interface): The digital display interface standard set by the DDWG*3 in 1999. *2 HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection): The video encryption technology developed by Intel for HDMI/DVI. It’s designed to

protect video content and requires a HDCP-compatible device to display the encrypted video.

*3 DDWG (Digital Display Working Group): Led by Intel, Compaq, Fujitsu, Hewlett Packard, IBM, NEC, and Silicon Image, this open

industry group’s objective is to address the industry's requirements for a digital connectivity speciﬁcation for high-performance PCs and digital displays.

Making HDMI Connections

If you have an HDMI-compatible player, you can connect it to the AV receiver with an HDMI cable.

Step 1: Connect your HDMI-compatible TV to the AV receiver’s HDMI OUT jack. Step 2: Connect your HDMI-compatible player to the AV receiver’s HDMI IN 1, 2, or 3 jack. Step 3: Connect your HDMI-compatible player to an analog and/or digital audio input on the AV

receiver.

Step 4: Assign the HDMI IN.

Turn on the AV receiver, and then assign the HDMI IN (see page 44).

■

Audio Signals

• Audio and video signals received via inputs other than the HDMI IN jacks are not output by the HDMI OUT.

• Audio and video signals received via the HDMI IN jacks are output only by the HDMI OUT.

•To watch an HDMI source that’s connected via the AV receiver’s HDMI jacks, the AV receiver must be turned on, otherwise no HDMI signal will be output.

• If you want to listen through the speakers connected to the AV receiver, in addition to an HDMI connection, you’ll also need to make a separate analog or digital audio connection.

Notes:

• The HDMI video stream is compatible with DVI (Digital Visual Interface), so TVs and displays with a DVI input can be connected by using an HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable. (Note that DVI connections only carry video, so you’ll need to make a separate connection for audio.) However, reliable operation with such an adapter is not guaranteed. In addition, video signals from a PC are not supported.

• When listening to an HDMI component through the AV receiver, set the HDMI component so that its video can be seen on the TV screen (on the TV, select the input of the HDMI component connected to the AV receiver). If the TV power is off or the TV is set to another input source, this may result in no sound from the AV receiver or the sound may be cut off.

• The HDMI audio signal (sampling rate, bit length, etc.) may be restricted by the connected source component. If the picture is poor or there’s no sound from a component connected via HDMI, check its setup. Refer to the connected component’s instruction manual for details.

Up and Running in a Few Easy Steps

To get your system up and running with the minimum of fuss, here’s a few pointers to help you conﬁgure the AV receiver before you use it for the very ﬁrst time. These settings only need to be made once.

■ Do the automatic speaker setup—this is essential!

See “Automatic Speaker Setup (Audyssey 2EQ)” on page 42.

■ Did you connect a component to an HDMI input, component video input, or digital audio input?

If you did, see “HDMI Input Setup” on page 44, “Component Video Input Setup” on page 45, or “Digital Input Setup” on page 46 respectively.

■ Did you connect an Onkyo MD recorder or CD recorder?

If you did, see “Changing the Input Display” on page 46.

First Time Setup

This section explains the settings that you need to make before using the AV receiver for the very ﬁrst time.

Automatic Speaker Setup (Audyssey 2EQ)

With the supplied calibrated microphone, Audyssey 2EQ automatically determines the number of speakers connected, their size for purposes of bass management, optimum crossover frequencies to the subwoofer (if present), and distances from the primary listening position. Audyssey 2EQ then removes the distortion caused by room acoustics by capturing room acoustical problems over the listening area in both the frequency and time domain. The result is clear, well-balanced sound for everyone. Enabling Audyssey 2EQ allows you to also use Audyssey Dynamic EQ, which maintains the proper octave-to-octave balance at any volume level. (See page 76)

Measurement Positions

To create a listening environment in which several people can enjoy your home theater simultaneously, Audyssey 2EQ takes measurements at three positions within the listening area.

First measurement point

This is the center point of the listening area, or the listening position.

Second measurement point

The right side of the listening area.

Third measurement point

The left side of the listening area.

and 2 and points 1

The distances between points and 3 must be at least 1 meter.

From the examples below, choose the listening area that best matches yours and place the microphone accordingly when prompted.

TV TV TV

Using Audyssey 2EQ

Notes:

• If the AV receiver is muted, it will be unmuted automatically when the automatic speaker setup starts.

• Automatic speaker setup cannot be performed while a pair of headphones is connected.

• It takes about 10 minutes to complete the automatic speaker setup for three positions. Total measurement time varies depending on the speakers.

• Do not connect or disconnect any speakers during the automatic speaker setup.

Notes:

•For all measurements, the microphone capsule should point directly at the ceiling.

• If there’s an obstacle between the microphone and any speaker, the automatic setup will not work correctly. Set up the room as you would when enjoying a DVD.

• Positioning the microphone close to where your ears would normally be will provide better results. You can adjust the height of the microphone by using a tripod or level table.

• Do not attempt to hold the microphone in your hand during measurements as this will produce incorrect results.

First Time Setup

—Continued

Press [ENTER].

The automatic speaker setup starts. You can cancel the automatic speaker setup at

any point in this procedure simply by disconnecting the setup microphone.

A test tone is output by each speaker in turn, as the Audyssey 2EQ function determines which speakers are connected. This takes a few minutes.

Note:

• Quiet the room as much as possible. Background noise can disrupt the room measurements. Close windows, silence cell phones, televisions, radios, air conditioners, ﬂuorescent lights, home appliances, light dimmers, or other devices, and refrain from talking.

When the following display appears,

move the speaker setup microphone to measurement point then press [ENTER].

Error Messages

While the automatic speaker setup is in progress, one of the following error messages may appear:

Ambient noise is too high

This message appears if there’s too much background noise and the measurements cannot be performed properly. Remove the source of the noise and try again.

Speaker Detect Errors

This message appears if one of the speaker-related errors below occurs.

• One of the front speakers has not been detected.

• One of the surround speakers has not been detected.

• The surround back speakers have been detected but the surround speakers haven’t.

• The right surround back speaker has been detected but the left surround back speaker hasn’t.

• The number of speakers detected on the second or third measurement was different to the number detected on the ﬁrst measurement.

Write Error

Audyssey 2EQ performs more measurements. This takes a few minutes.

When the following display appears,

move the speaker setup microphone to measurement point 3 (page 42), and then press [ENTER].

Audyssey 2EQ performs more measurements. This takes a few minutes.

When the measurements are complete, the results are calculated and saved automatically.

When the automatic speaker setup is

complete, disconnect the speaker setup microphone.

Note:

• When the automatic speaker setup is complete, the Equalizer Settings (page 81) will be set to “Audyssey.”

This message appears if saving fails.

❑

Matching Error

This message appears if a speaker that was detected during the 1st measurement is not detected during the 2nd or 3rd measurements. If this message appears, check your speaker connections, and then try again.

To Retry the Automatic Speaker Setup

Press the [ENTER] button.

Make sure speakers that cannot be detected are connected properly.

Changing the Speaker Settings Manually

If you wish to make changes to the settings found during the automatic speaker setup, follow the directions on pages 77–81.

First Time Setup

—Continued

Using a Powered Subwoofer

If you’re using a powered subwoofer, as it outputs very low-frequency sound and its position is usually low down, it may not be detected by the automatic speaker setup. In this case, increase the subwoofer’s volume, select its highest crossover frequency, and then try running the automatic speaker setup again.

Note:

• While the multichannel DVD input is selected, the Speaker Conﬁguration settings on page 77 are ignored, and signals from the multichannel input are fed to the speakers as they are.

Use the SPEAKERS [A] and [B] buttons on the AV receiver or the [SP A/B] button on the remote controller to select the speaker set that you want to use.

Pressing the remote controller’s [SP A/B] button cycles through the following settings: Speaker Set A → Speaker Set A&B → Speaker Set B → Off.

To watch a DVD or other video source, on your TV, select the video input that’s connected to the AV receiver’s COMPONENT VIDEO OUT, HDMI OUT, or MONITOR OUT.

On some DVD players, you may need to change the digital or HDMI audio output settings.

To adjust the volume, use the MASTER VOLUME control or the remote controller’s [VOL] button.

Since the AV receiver is designed for home theaters, it has a wide volume range for precise adjustment. The volume can be set to Min, 1 through 79, or Max.

Note

: When the subwoofer volume level is set to a positive (+) value, the maximum

master volume level is reduced proportionally.

To set the level of the subwoofer, use the OUTPUT LEVEL control.

Because our ears are less sensitive to very low bass sounds, there’s a temptation to set the level of the subwoofer too high. As a rule of thumb, set the subwoofer level to what you think is the optimal level, and then back it off slightly.

Select a listening mode and enjoy!

See “Using the Listening Modes” on page 67.

Using RDS (European models only)

RDS only works in areas where RDS broadcasts are available. When tuned to an RDS station, the RDS indicator appears.

What is RDS?

RDS stands for transmitting data in FM radio signals. It was developed by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and is available in most European countries. RDS is approved by the National Radio Systems Committee (NRSC) and is available in North America.

Many FM stations use it these days. In addition to displaying text information, RDS can also help you ﬁnd radio stations by type (e.g., news, sport, rock, etc.).

The AV receiver supports four types of RDS information:

PS (Program Service)

When tuned to an RDS station that’s broadcasting PS information, the station’s name will be displayed. Pressing the [DISPLAY] button will display the frequency for 3 seconds.

RT (Radio Text)

When tuned to an RDS station that’s broadcasting text information, the text will be shown on the display (see page 64).

PTY (Program Type)

This allows you to search RDS radio stations by type (see page 64).

TP (Trafﬁc Program)

This allows you to search for RDS radio stations that broadcast trafﬁc information (see page 64).

Notes:

• In some cases, the characters displayed on the AV receiver may not be identical to those broadcast by the radio station. Also, unexpected characters may be displayed when unsupported characters are received. This is not a malfunction.

• If the signal from an RDS station is weak, RDS data may be displayed intermittently or not at all.

About the Listening Modes

The AV receiver’s listening modes can transform your listening room into a movie theater or concert hall, with high ﬁdelity and stunning surround sound.

The illustration shows which speakers are active in each listening mode with 7.1 channel speaker system.

Front left Center Front right

Subwoofer

Surround left

Direct

back left/ right

In this mode, audio from the input source is output directly with minimal processing, providing high-ﬁdelity reproduction. All of the source’s audio channels are output as they are.

Stereo

Sound is output by the front left and right speakers and subwoofer.

Mono

Use this mode when watching an old movie with a mono soundtrack, or use it with the foreign language soundtracks recorded in the left and right channels of some movies. It can also be used with DVDs or other sources containing multiplexed audio, such as karaoke DVDs.

Dolby Pro Logic IIx

will be used instead of

Dolby Digital

Use this mode with DVDs that bear the Dolby Digital logo, and Dolby Digital TV broadcasts. This is the most common digital surround-sound format, and it’ll put you right in the middle of the action, just like being in a movie theater or concert hall.

5.1-channel source + Dolby EX

These modes expand 5.1-channel sources for 6.1/7.1channel playback. They’re especially suited to Dolby EX soundtracks that include a matrix-encoded surround back channel. The additional channel adds an extra dimension and provides an enveloping surround sound experience, perfect for rotating and ﬂy-by sound effects.

5.1-channel source + Dolby PLIIx Music

These modes use the Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music mode to expand 5.1-channel sources for 6.1/7.1-channel playback.

5.1-channel source + Dolby PLIIx Movie

These modes use the Dolby Pro Logic IIx Movie mode to expand 5.1-channel sources for 7.1-channel playback.

DTS

The DTS digital surround-sound format supports up to

5.1 discrete channels and uses less compression for highﬁdelity reproduction. Use it with DVDs and CDs that bear the DTS logo.

DTS 96/24

This mode is for use with DTS 96/24 sources. This is high-resolution DTS with a 96kHz sampling rate and 24bit resolution, providing superior ﬁdelity. Use it with DVDs that bear the DTS 96/24 logo.

DTS-ES Discrete

This mode is for use with DTS-ES Discrete soundtracks, that use a discrete surround back channel for true

6.1/7.1-channel playback. The seven totally separate audio channels provide better spatial imaging and 360degree sound localization, perfect for sounds that pan across the surround channels. Use it with DVDs that bear the DTS-ES logo, especially those with a DTS-ES Discrete soundtrack.

DTS-ES Matrix

This mode is for use with DTS-ES Matrix soundtracks, that use a matrix-encoded back-channel for 6.1/7.1channel playback. Use it with DVDs that bear the DTSES logo, especially those with a DTS-ES Matrix soundtrack.

Using the Listening Modes

—Continued

DTS Neo:6

This mode expands any 2-channel source for 7.1-channel playback. It uses seven full-bandwidth channels of matrix decoding for matrix-encoded material, providing a very natural and seamless surround sound experience that fully envelops the listener.

• Neo:6 Cinema (NEO:6 Cin)

Use this mode with any stereo movie (e.g., TV, DVD, VHS).

• Neo:6 Music (NEO:6 Mus)

Use this mode with any stereo music source (e.g., CD, radio, cassette, TV, VHS, DVD).

5.1-channel source + Neo:6

This mode uses Neo:6 to expand 5.1-channel sources for

6.1/7.1-channel playback.

Onkyo Original DSP Modes

Mono Movie

This mode is suitable for old movies and other mono sources. The center speaker outputs the sound as it is, while reverb is applied to the sound output by the other speakers, giving presence to even mono material.

Orchestra

Suitable for classical or operatic music, this mode emphasizes the surround channels in order to widen the stereo image and simulates the natural reverberation of a large hall.

Unplugged

Suitable for acoustic instruments, vocals, and jazz, this mode emphasizes the front stereo image, giving the impression of being right in front of the stage.

Studio-Mix

Suitable for rock or pop music, listening to music in this mode creates a lively sound ﬁeld with a powerful acoustic image, like being at a club or rock concert.

TV Logic

This mode adds realistic acoustics to TV shows produced in a TV studio, surround effects to the entire sound, and clarity to voices.

All Ch Stereo (AllCh St)

Ideal for background music, this mode ﬁlls the entire listening area with stereo sound from the front, surround, and surround back speakers.

Full Mono

In this mode, all speakers output the same sound in mono, so the sound you hear is the same regardless of where you are within the listening room.

T-D (Theater-Dimensional) or

With this mode you can enjoy a virtual 5.1 surround sound even with only two or three speakers. This works by controlling how sounds reach the listener’s left and right ears. Good results may not be possible if there’s too much reverb, so we recommend that you use this mode in an environment with little or no natural reverb.

Recording

L AUDIO R

AUX INPUT

This section explains how to record the input source and how to record audio and video from separate sources.

Notes:

• The surround sound and DSP listening modes cannot be recorded.

• Copy-protected DVDs cannot be recorded.

• Sources connected to the analog multichannel input cannot be recorded.

• Sources connected to a digital input cannot be recorded. Only analog inputs can be recorded.

• DTS signals will be recorded as noise, so don’t attempt analog recording of DTS CDs or LDs.

• While the Pure Audio listening mode is selected, the VCR/DVR OUT V and S jacks don’t output video signals, so select another mode when recording.

Recording the Input Source

Audio sources can be recorded to a recorder (e.g., cassette deck, CDR, MD) connected to the TAPE OUT jack. Video sources can be recorded to a video recorder (e.g., VCR, DVR) connected to the VCR/DVR OUT jacks. See pages 27 to 40 for hookup information.

AUXTAPE TUNER

Remote

controller

Use the input selector buttons to select the source that you want to record.

See “Which Connections Should I Use?” on page 28 to see which signals can be output and recorded.

You can watch the source while recording it. The AV receiver’s MASTER VOLUME control has no effect on recording.

Recording from Different AV Sources

You can overdub audio onto your video recordings by simultaneously recording audio and video from two separate sources. This is possible because only the audio source is switched when an audio-only input source, such as TAPE, TUNER, or CD, is selected, the video source remains the same.

In the following example, audio from the CD player connected to the CD IN and video from the camcorder connected to the AUX INPUT VIDEO jack are recorded by the VCR connected to the VCR/DVR OUT jacks.

With this setting, you can move the sound ﬁeld forward or backward when using the Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music listening mode. It can be adjusted from –3 to +3. The default value is 0. Higher settings move the sound ﬁeld backward. Lower settings move it forward.

If the stereo image feels too wide, or there’s too much surround sound, move the sound ﬁeld forward to improve the balance. Conversely, if the stereo image feels like it’s in mono, or there’s not enough surround sound, move it backward.

■

Center Width

With this setting, you can adjust the width of the sound from the center speaker when using the Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music listening mode. Normally, if you’re using a center speaker, the center channel sound is output by only the center speaker. (If you’re not using a center speaker, the center channel sound will be distributed to the front left and right speakers to create a phantom center). This setting controls the front left, right, and center mix, allowing you to adjust the weight of the center channel sound. It can be adjusted from 0 to 7. The default value is 3.

Neo:6 Music

■

Center Image

The DTS Neo:6 Music listening mode creates 6-channel surround sound from 2-channel stereo sources. With this setting, you can specify by how much the front left and right channel output is attenuated in order to create the center channel. It can be adjusted from 0 to 5. The default value is 2.

When set to 0, the front left and right channel output is attenuated by half (–6 dB), giving the impression that the sound is located centrally. This setting works well when the listening position is considerably off center. When set to 5, the front left and right channels are not attenuated, maintaining the original stereo balance.

Power

Can’t turn on the AV receiver

• Make sure that the power cord is plugged into the wall outlet properly.

• Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, wait 5 seconds or more, then plug it back in again.

The AV receiver turns off as soon as it’s turned on

• The amp protection circuit has been activated. Remove the power cord from the wall outlet immediately. Disconnect all speaker cables and input sources, and leave the AV receiver with its power cord disconnected for 1 hour. After that, reconnect the power cord and set the volume to maximum. If the AV receiver stays on, set the volume to minimum, disconnect the power cord, and reconnect your speakers and input sources. If the AV receiver turns off when you set the volume to maximum, disconnect the power cord, and contact your Onkyo dealer.

Audio

There’s no sound or it’s very quiet

•To listen to an audio source that’s connected to an HDMI input, make sure that input is assigned to an input selector (page 44). HDMI audio is passed through the AV receiver and can only be heard from your TV.

•To listen to an audio source that’s connected to an OPTICAL or COAXIAL input, make sure that input is assigned to an input selector (page 46).

• Make sure that all audio connecting plugs are pushed in all the way (page 27).

• Make sure that the polarity of the speaker cables is correct, and that the bare wire is in contact with the metal part of each speaker terminal (page 22).

• Make sure that the speaker cables are not shorting.

• Check the volume (page 47). The AV receiver is designed for home theater enjoyment and has a wide volume range for precise adjustment.

• If the MUTING indicator is ﬂashing on the display, press the remote controller’s [MUTING] button to unmute the AV receiver (page 48).

• While a pair of headphones is connected to the PHONES jack, no sound is output by the main room speakers (page 49).

• Check the digital audio output settings on the source component. On some game consoles, such as those that can play DVDs, the default setting is off.

•With some DVD-Video discs, you need to select an audio format from a menu or with the AUDIO button on your DVD player’s remote controller.

• If your turntable doesn’t have a phono preamp built-in, you must connect one between it and the AV receiver.

• If your turntable uses an MC cartridge, you must connect an MC head amp, or an MC transformer and a phono preamp.

• Check the speaker settings (pages 77–81).

• If the digital signal format is set to PCM or DTS, set it to Auto (page 50).

• If there’s no sound from a DVD player connected to an HDMI IN, check the DVD player’s output settings, and be sure to select a compatible audio format.

Only the front speakers produce sound

• When the Stereo or Mono listening mode is selected, only the front speakers and subwoofer produce sound.

• Check the Speaker Conﬁguration (page 77).

Only the center speaker produces sound

• If you use the Dolby Pro Logic IIx Movie or Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music listening mode with a mono source, such as an AM radio station or mono TV program, the sound will be concentrated in the center speaker.

• Check the Speaker Conﬁguration (page 77).

The center speaker produces no sound

• When the Stereo or Mono listening mode is selected, the center speaker produces no sound (page 71).

• Check the Speaker Conﬁguration (page 77).

The surround speakers produce no sound

• When the Stereo or Mono listening mode is selected, the surround speakers produce no sound.

• Depending on the source and the current listening mode, not much sound may be produced by the surround speakers. Try another listening mode (page 67).

• Check the Speaker Conﬁguration (page 77).

Troubleshooting

—Continued

The surround back speakers produce no sound

• The surround back speakers are not used with all listening modes. Try another listening mode (page 67).

• Not much sound may be produced by the surround back speakers with some sources.

• Check the Speaker Conﬁguration (page 77).

• While speaker set B is on, playback is reduced to 5.1channels and the surround back speakers produce no sound (page 7).

The subwoofer produces no sound

• If the source material contains no audio in the LFE channel, the subwoofer produces no sound.

• Check the Speaker Conﬁguration (page 77).

There’s no sound with a certain signal format

• Check the digital audio output setting on the source component. On some game consoles, such as those that can play DVDs, the default setting is off.

•With some DVD-Video discs, you need to select an audio format from a menu or with the AUDIO button on your DVD player’s remote controller.

Can’t get 6.1- or 7.1-channel playback

• While speaker set B is on, playback in the main room is reduced to 5.1-channels and the surround back speakers produce no sound (page 7).

The volume cannot be set to 79

• After the Automatic Speaker Setup function has been run, or the volume level of each individual speaker has been adjusted (pages 42 and 80), the maximum volume may be reduced.

• When the levels of each speaker have been adjusted (page 80), the maximum possible volume may be reduced.

Noise can be heard

• Using cable ties to bundle audio cables with power cords, speaker cables, and so on can degrade audio performance, so don’t use them.

• An audio cable may be picking up interference. Try repositioning your cables.

• When the Equalizer setting (page 81) is set to Audyssey, the maximum possible volume is reduced by 6 dB.

The Late Night function doesn’t work

• Make sure that the source is Dolby Digital (page 76).

The analog multichannel input doesn’t work

• Check the multichannel input connections (page 31).

• Make sure that the multichannel input is selected (page 47).

• Check the audio output settings on your DVD player.

About DTS signals

• When playing DTS program material, using the pause, fast forward, or fast reverse function on your player may produce a short audible noise. This is not a malfunction.

• When DTS program material ends and the DTS bitstream stops, the AV receiver remains in DTS listen-

ing mode and the DTS indicator remains on. This is to prevent noise when you use the pause, fast forward, or fast reverse function on your player. If you switch your player from DTS to PCM, as the AV receiver does not switch formats immediately, you may not hear anything, in which case you should stop your player for about 3 seconds, and then resume playback.

•With some CD players, you won’t be able to playback DTS material properly even though your player is connected to a digital input on the AV receiver. This is usually because the DTS bitstream has been processed (e.g., output level, sampling rate, or frequency response changed) and the AV receiver doesn’t recognize it as a genuine DTS signal. In such cases, you may hear noise.

The beginning of audio received by an HDMI IN can’t be heard

• Since it takes longer to identify the format of an HDMI signal than it does for other digital audio signals, sound may not be output immediately.

Video

There’s no picture

• Make sure that all video connecting plugs are pushed in all the way (page 27).

• Make sure that each video component is properly connected.

• On your TV, make sure that the video input to which the AV receiver is connected is selected.

• While the Pure Audio listening mode is selected, the video circuitry is turned off and only the HDMI OUT outputs video signals.

• The AV receiver does not convert between formats, so if a video source component is connected to a component video input, your TV must be connected to the component video output (page 28).

• If the video source is connected to an HDMI input, your TV must be connected to the HDMI OUT (page 28).

There’s no picture from a source connected to an HDMI IN

• Reliable operation with an HDMI-to-DVI adapter is not guaranteed. In addition, video signals from a PC are not supported (page 36).

• If the message “Resolution Error” appears on the AV receiver’s display, this indicates that your TV does not support the current video resolution and you need to select another resolution on your DVD player.

Troubleshooting

—Continued

Tuner

Reception is noisy, stereo FM reception suffers from hiss, or the FM STEREO indicator doesn’t light up

• Relocate your antenna.

•Move the AV receiver away from your TV or computer.

• When listening to an AM station, operating the remote controller may cause noise.

•Passing cars and airplanes can cause interference.

• Concrete walls weaken radio signals.

• If nothing improves the reception, install an outdoor antenna.

Remote Controller

The remote controller doesn’t work

• Make sure that the batteries are installed with the correct polarity (page 20).

• Make sure that the remote controller is not too far away from the AV receiver and there’s no obstruction between the remote controller and the AV receiver’s remote control sensor (page 20).

• Make sure you’ve selected the correct remote controller mode.

• Make sure you’ve entered the correct remote control code (page 82).

Can’t control other components

• Make sure you’ve selected the correct remote controller mode.

• If you’ve connected an -capable Onkyo MD recorder or CD recorder to the TAPE IN/OUT jacks, or to the CBL/SAT IN jacks, for the remote controller to work properly, you must set the Input Display to MD or CDR, respectively (see page 46).

• The entered remote control code may not be correct. If more than one code is listed, try each one.

•With some AV components, certain buttons may not work as expected, and some may not work at all.

•To control an Onkyo component that’s connected via

, point the remote controller at the AV receiver. Be sure to enter the appropriate remote control code ﬁrst (page 83).

•To control an Onkyo component that’s not connected via , or another manufacturer’s component, point the remote controller at that component. Be sure to enter the appropriate remote control code ﬁrst (page 82).

Recording

Can’t record

• On your recorder, make sure the correct input is selected.

•To prevent signal loops and damage to the AV receiver, input signals are not fed through to outputs

with the same name (e.g., TAPE IN to TAPE OUT or VCR/DVR IN to VCR/DVR OUT).

Others

The sound changes when I connect my headphones

• When a pair of headphones is connected, the listening mode is set to Stereo, unless it’s already set to Stereo, Mono, or Direct, in which case it stays the same.

How do I change the language of a multiplex source

• On the “Audio Adjust” menu, change the “Input (Mux)” setting to Main or Sub (page 74).

The functions don’t work

•To use , you must make an connection and an analog audio connection (RCA) between the component and AV receiver, even if they are connected digitally (page 40).

The following settings can be made for the S-Video and composite video inputs

You must use the buttons on the unit to make these settings.

1. While holding down the input selector button for the

input source that you want to set, press the [SETUP] button.

2. Use the Left and Right [ ]/[ ] buttons to change

the setting.

3. Press the [SETUP] button when you’ve ﬁnished.

•

Video Attenuation

This setting can be made for the DVD, VCR/DVR, CBL/SAT, or AUX input. If you have a games console connected to the S-Video or composite video input, and the picture isn’t very clear, you can attenuate the gain.

Video ATT:0: Video ATT:2:

The AV receiver contains a microcomputer for signal processing and control functions. In very rare situations, severe interference, noise from an external source, or static electricity may cause it to lockup. In the unlikely event that this happens, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, wait at least 5 seconds, and then plug it back in again.

Onkyo is not responsible for damages (such as CD rental fees) due to unsuccessful recordings caused by this unit’s malfunction. Before you record important data, make sure that the material will be recorded correctly.

Before disconnecting the power cord from the wall outlet, set the AV receiver to Standby.
